By the ponds ready for Harvest
If there is a baby to be found Carol will find it!``We made a quick trip to Haiti, The flight was excellent , the road travel reminded us that we need to learn to be content in all things Philip 4:11. We can truly say we have traveled in a truck by ourselves in the US and we can also say we have traveled in the back of a mini pickup with 15 of our closest friends in Haiti. We know what is is to have need for passengers and what it is to have plenty.
Paul wrote to Titus He said the reason he left him in Crete was to straighten out some things. From time to time things need to be straightened out, there was a misunderstanding of some direction given for the work in Passe Rene the last time we were in. Fortunately things didn’t get too far off track. There were heavy rains in the end of July that resulted in a flash flood at Passe Rene. A small concrete building on the back of the church building was washed away and the river came over it’s bank and washed out the fish ponds there. So we helped stock the river with fish, hopefully someone will benefit from this.
We also visited the fish ponds in Bigot and Brother Jacques house. What a blessing. The last trip we were trying to buy fish everywhere when we saw Jacque he told us he just received 1000 gratis “free”. I believe they all survived and he tells us they have also multiplied. The ponds were full, what a wonderful sight. Many times you face discouragement on the mission field but God is faithful there are also many blessings.
We traveled up the mountain to check on our friends Telle and his family. It is always a difficult walk but always a blessing to see them. It’s one of those things where you go to encourage someone but instead you are the one that gets encouraged. When we got to Cap Haitian we checked in to a hotel we were in the room a short time when they announced Mister Jimenez was here to see us. Arcenio had heard that we were in town so he road a motorcycle 40 miles to see us. While he was here he got on 3 different cell phones and called several people to try to find a contact in Caicos. After a few minutes he was successful and arranged to have Jorell meet us at noon the next day.
We have a meeting scheduled for this evening please be in prayer about this. We have talked to several people and invited them to a small home at 7pm. Jorell a young man that was baptized by Arcenio in Quanamet Haiti is living there. We hope that he will be willing to get something started here. We leave for the states tomorrow, we will try to update Saturday from home.
Love Jeff and Carol
